Embodiment Construction

[0043]Referring to FIG. 1, an embodiment of a flexible thermoplastic bag 100 is illustrated. While flexible bags are generally capable of holding a vast variety of different contents, the bag 100 illustrated in FIG. 1 may be intended to be used as a liner for a garbage can or similar refuse container. The bag 100 may be made from a first sidewall 102 and an opposing second sidewall 104 overlying the first sidewall to provide an interior volume 106 therebetween. The first and second sidewalls 102, 104 may be joined along a first side edge 110, a parallel or non-parallel second side edge 112, and a closed bottom edge 114 that may extend between the first and second side edges. The sidewalls 102, 104 may be joined along the first and second side edges 110, 112 and bottom edge 114 by any suitable process such as, for example, heat sealing. The bottom edge 114 may be formed by joining the first sidewall 102 to the second sidewall 104 by any suitable process. The bottom edge 114 may be fo...

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 239,469, filed Sep. 3, 2009, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]This invention relates generally to bags having a draw tape. More particularly, the present invention relates generally to trash bags having a draw tape.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]Among their many applications, it is known to use thermoplastic bags as liners in trash or refuse receptacles. Trash receptacles that employ such liners may be found at many locations, such as, small household kitchen garbage cans. Bags that are intended to be used as liners for such refuse containers are typically made from low-cost, pliable thermoplastic material. When the receptacle is full, the thermoplastic liner actually holding the trash may be removed for further disposal and replaced with a new liner.[0006]It is d...
